About Our Shelter...

Columbia Humane Society is committed to compassionate sheltering by providing a safe haven for animals in transition, advocating to end animal overpopulation through spaying/neutering, and serving our community by promoting responsible pet adoptions.

Our Adoption Process...

All cat adoption fees include leukemia testing, spaying or neutering, entire series of vaccines, de-wormer & flea treatment while at the shelter, microchipping, free vet check within 14 days of adoption at any local Columbia County Veterinarian, a complimentary adoption take-home packet and a carrier.

All dog adoption fees include heartworm testing, spaying or neutering, entire series of vaccines, de-wormer & flea treatment while at the shelter, microchipping, free vet check within 14 days of adoption at any local Columbia County Veterinarian, complimentary take-home adoption packet and a leash and collar.

All adoptions must be reviewed prior to approval. In order to ensure that every dog and cat goes to the appropriate home, Columbia Humane Society reserves the right to approve or deny any adoption application for any reason they see fit. A home check may be performed in order to determine suitability.

Every adoption starts with a 14 day home visit to ensure that the dog or cat is truly a good match. In the event that it is not, the animal can be returned within that 14 day period for a full refund.
